Reviews
Jahmings Maccow & E-Rif, New Way
(� 1999 Liquid Cyber Recordings)
Far be it from me to call myself a know-it-all, and when it comes to reggae, well, it�s probably a category on Jeopardy where I wouldn�t win too much cash. Yet there�s something calming about that reggae beat, the chinking of the guitar chords on the 2 and the 4, that just relaxes you. Jahmings Maccow, who has been around in various shades and forms since the late �70s, offers a disc that isn�t full-blown reggae either, with some R&B, jazz, even hip-hop inflections and nuances, all popping up here and there.
